"Evolutionary Pathways is, without a doubt, one of the most powerful motivational websites in cyberspace." ~L.A. Author of Dream Journey.

Funny words of wisdom and funny inspirational quotes about life spread a smile on our face while opening the doors straight to the heart. There is nothing like humor and laughter to take you right out-of-the-mind.

Stepping Out of the Mind with Laughter

"Humour is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit."

~Aristotle

Humor, laughter, a genuine smile - so simple, yet so powerful.

The power of humor comes from its ability to take us immediately out-of-the-mind. Try explaining a joke and you'll know this is true. When a joke is analyzed - once it's returned to the confines of the mind - the humor in it instantly dies.

The same is true for wisdom. Nothing quells wisdom faster
than a quick, judgemental comment from the mind. Wisdom enters a mind that is
open, a mind free of constraints and preconceived notions.

Humor and laughter bypass the usual refrains of the mind.
With an open mind and an open heart, we are able to absorb new information and
integrate new experiences. We change and marvel at how easily change has actually come our way.

Funny words of wisdom, or funny wisdom quotes, are an incredible gift.
